  You seem to be keeping up with a decent world coin collection. I'm struggling to move my interest outside of British, but Austrailian coinage seems to be on my mind more than most. This month's additions for me. 1951 Crown, prooflike in red box. 1962 Half Crown - polished flan, BU lightly toning, unrecorded, Davies die pairings 2+B. Came in a sealed polythene wrap, previously owned by a retired Royal Mint employee. It seems there are more polished flan varieties for other years out there, 1961 being the most prolific. I have seen one other listing for a 1962 polished flan that has been sold. I have heard from others, 1955 half crown and a 1950s sixpence with polished flans.

  Thank you for all the great video's, I only recently joined and have been watching when I can from the start. Your knowledge and enthusiasm really comes across. Whether once a week, once a month, or once every 3 months, I'll continue to watch. Being a lapsed collector (I recently re-started again having found some of my late fathers collection - and I normally collect something related but quite different) I did have a dumb query and I apologise if its been covered in a video I've not yet got to - you do some brilliant close ups of coins, what do you use ? (my eyesight isn't ideal so having a microscope with a screen display seems a good option). And lastly have you ever done a video of your "own" collection, it would be great to see. Thank you again for all the work you've done !

  Some cool stuff here matey, particularly from the perspective of an Anglo Australian. All the coins you find in Europa are mildly scarce here in the Antipodes, yet, you chaps, over there, find virtually nothing from Asia let alone the Pacific!! The Pacific is the way to go!! Virtually everything is scarce to rare and even the scarce coins in Unc, from the 1930s - 1980s usually sell in Australia for under $30!! Mintages are very often under a million and often under 50k!! Great long-term investments in an increasingly, unfortunately, globalising world!! Love your Channel mate!! Cheers from Oz!!

  This coin became bimetallic in 1998 due to possible counterfeiting of that coin. This was the largest Hungarian coin by size at that time. The current Hungarian coin that has the largest size as of 2024 is the 200 forint one, which is also the largest denomination.

  The 1927 was a bit of an impulse purchase, I will admit. It is a lovely coin in hand with some toning starting to shine through. The 1875 was a definite upgrade and one of a couple of varieties to be found on the 1875s
